Aww, this was such a sweet film. I'm kind of annoyed it was kind of mis-marketed. Sure, it was what was shown in the trailers and all, but it had such a great message and had a heart as well. I definitely enjoyed it more than the overrated Hangover. I would actually compare this more to American Pie than anything. Very nice flick and I'm so disappointed it isn't being noticed.

8/10

21 AND OVER

A future well remembered this will never be, but it is a decent comedy for a night out. I do agree that it reminds one of American Pie only in these that one of the characters comes across as a Stifler type while the other friend is a combination of others. I thought the film starts off fine as we get introduced to our characters. They go out to have a night on the town and excessive drinking happens with some pretty funny things occurring I can't lie. A review I read mentioned how it glossed over student suicide or that theme in general explaning it away later as he was just very stressed out, but he happens to carry a loaded weapon for some reason. He didn't seem like the gun toting type. Also, I thought the end got extremely preposterous. Now, I can accept fakeness in a film but the boy is stealing a car, vehicular damage, smashing parking meters among other things. I can't imagine he got off scott free. Overall though, I did enjoy it for what it was. I was entertained.

Grade - B

I thought it was pretty funny. Certainly better than The Hangover.

7/10 ( B )

I would almost give it a B+ though.

But I gave it 4/10, so you must be wrong.

This movie was terrible. Shocked by the solid reception here. All of the actors have done better and the humor was disgusting and juvenile.

Not as unpleasant as Project X, but also not very funny and inconsequential. Didn't find any of the leads interesting and most of the jokes fell flat. It kind of dragged, despite its short running time. That being said, I could see myself rewatching it one day with the right company (friends and beer):
